Hundreds of people in nothing more than underwear walked through the city of Medellin and gathered at River Park for 'No Pants Day' on Sunday.

New York performance art group Improv Everywhere started No Pants Day in 2002, but it has since grown into an international craze, which is being used by Colombians as a statement for their freedom of expression.

A local citizen, Sebastian Garcia coordinated the Medellin version, and told radio station Caracol that the event is “a message to those people who judge by what is on the outside when it is what is on the inside that matters.”
